Headline: "The [PLO] Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs and the Ramallah district organize a solidarity visit to the Abu Hmeid family in the Al-Amari refugee camp"
     "The [PLO] Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs and the Ramallah and El-Bireh district paid a solidarity visit yesterday morning (Wednesday) [Dec. 12, 2018] to the Abu Hmeid family (i.e., Um Nasser Abu Hmeid and her terrorist sons who are responsible for at least 10 murders; see note below), whose house the Israeli occupation decided to demolish after one of the family's sons, Islam Abu Hmeid, was accused of killing a soldier in the Al-Amari refugee camp several months ago.
The delegation from the commission and the district –led by Director of [PLO] Commission [of Prisoners' Affairs] Qadri Abu Bakr and District Governor [of Ramallah and El-Bireh] Laila Ghannam – met with Um Yusuf Abu Hmeid who is standing firm. They emphasized to her that the entire Palestinian people appreciates the sacrifice of this family, and that the path of honorable struggle of its Martyr (Shahid) and prisoner sons is a crown of honor to every free and respectable person. Abu Bakr and Ghannam emphasized that the occupation's crimes and its threats will not prevent the Palestinian leadership from fulfilling its obligations regarding the fighting and sacrificing families…
It should be noted that the Abu Hmeid family is one of the families with a long history struggle, which is paved with the blood of the Martyrs and the resolve of the prisoners. Her son Abd Al-Mun'im died as a Martyr on the path to freedom, and she has five sons in the occupation's prison who are serving a total of 18 life sentences."
